Pushing The Limits Of SSD Storage at 2.4GB/s

A few months ago someone mentioned that setting up additional RAID configurations was not possible with an OCZ REVO drive installed. It brought forward an interesting idea that we finally have had a chance to play with as we like to retain SSDs in order to include them in future testing. This article displays the Gigabyte P67A-UD7 motherboard running 3 RAID 0 configurations, these being the OCZ Revo x2, OCZ Revo and LSI 9260-8i MegaRAID card running 8 x Micron C300 SSDs.

In total, there are 18 SSDs and one hard drive active in the system, two of which are mPCIe cards and one even being a USB 3 SSD.

The unique part that we truly enjoyed was benchmarking the LSI with 8xMicron SSDs being pushed at RAID 0. The ATTO score below displays a mind boggling 2.4GB/s read and 1.8GB/s write which we couldn’t fathom before seeing it.

Stay tuned in the next few days as we blow the roof off of storage as we know it. We have some exciting and…well…many might say unbelievable storage testing that we will let you in on. The SSD Review intends on doing for SSD RAID that of which we haven’t seen before!!
